Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 102(b)(7) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) permits a corporation to eliminate or limit the personal liability of directors and certain officers of a corporation to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except where the director or officer breached his or her duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated a law, or for any transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit. In addition, liability is not eliminated (i) for directors, under Section 174 of the DGCL, for the unlawful payment of a dividend or an unlawful stock purchase or redemption, or (ii) for officers, in connection with any action by or in the right of the corporation. The exculpation permitted for officers extends only to those officers specified in Section 102(b)(7).
Section 145(a) of the DGCL provides that a corporation has the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, other than an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent does not, of itself, create a presumption that the person failed to satisfy the foregoing standard of conduct.
Section 145(b) of the DGCL provides that a corporation has the power to indemnify any such person in connection with an action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification may be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which such person has been adjudged liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought determines upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the Court of Chancery or such other court deems proper. Indemnification in an action by or in the right of the corporation is limited to expenses and does not extend to judgments, fines or amounts paid in settlement.
Section 145(c) of the DGCL requires a corporation to indemnify a present or former director or officer against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred to the extent such person has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Section 145(a) or 145(b), or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein. Section 145(f) provides that indemnification and advancement of expenses are not exclusive of any other rights to which a person seeking indemnification or advancement may be entitled, and that a right to indemnification or to advancement of expenses arising under a provision of a corporation’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws may not be eliminated or impaired by an amendment to that provision after the occurrence of the act or omission that is the subject of the proceeding for which indemnification or advancement is sought. Section 145(g) provides that a corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any such person against any liability asserted against such person in such capacity, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under Section 145.
Our certificate of incorporation provides that no director or officer of the Company shall have any personal liability to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the DGCL as the same exists or hereafter may be amended, and that no amendment, repeal or modification of that provision will adversely affect any right or protection of a director or officer with respect to any act or omission occurring prior thereto. Because that provision is qualified by reference to what the DGCL permits, the
exculpation of officers is subject to the statutory limitations described above, including the exclusion of actions by or in the right of the Company. Our certificate of incorporation further provides that the Company has the power to provide rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses to its current and former officers, directors, employees and agents, and to any person who is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.
Our bylaws provide that the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended, any director or officer of the Company who was or is made or is threatened to be made a party or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person for whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer of the Company or, while serving as a director or officer of the Company, is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, enterprise or non-profit entity, including service with respect to employee benefit plans (a “covered person”), against all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred by such person in connection with any such Proceeding. The Company is required to indemnify a covered person in connection with a Proceeding initiated by such person only if the Proceeding was authorized by our board of directors. Our bylaws also provide that the Company has the power to indemnify and hold harmless its employees and agents, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, on a similar basis.
Our bylaws provide that the Company shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law, pay the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by any covered person, and may pay such expenses incurred by any employee or agent of the Company, in defending any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition, in each case only upon receipt of an undertaking by the person to repay all amounts advanced if it is ultimately determined that the person is not entitled to be indemnified. No such advance will be made to an officer who is not also a director if it is determined, in the manner specified in our bylaws, that the facts then known demonstrate clearly and convincingly that the officer acted in bad faith or in a manner not believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company.
Our bylaws provide that the rights conferred thereunder are not exclusive of any other rights to which a person may be entitled under any statute, our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws, any agreement, any vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. Our bylaws provide that the rights conferred thereunder continue notwithstanding that the person has ceased to be a director or officer and inure to the benefit of such person’s estate, heirs, executors, administrators, legatees and distributees. Our bylaws further provide that the indemnification and advancement provisions constitute a contract between the Company and each person who serves or has served as a director or officer, that such rights are present contractual rights that are fully vested upon adoption of our bylaws or, for persons commencing service thereafter, upon commencement of service, and that no repeal or modification of those provisions will adversely affect any right or protection in respect of any act or omission occurring prior thereto or under any indemnification agreement then in effect.
In connection with the consummation of the business combination of the Company, completed June 18, 2026 (the “Business Combination”), the Company entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. These agreements, among other things, require the Company to indemnify its directors and officers for certain expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts, incurred by a director or officer in any action or proceeding arising out of their services as one of the Company’s directors or officers or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at the Company’s request.
We maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering certain liabilities of our directors and officers arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacities as directors or officers, and our executive officers are covered under such insurance on the same basis as our other directors and officers.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not applicable.
Item 8. Exhibits.
Item 9. Undertakings.
(A) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;
Provided, however, that paragraphs (A)(1)(i) and (A)(1)(ii) do not apply if the Registration Statement is on Form S-8, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(B) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(C) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of New York, State of New York, on this 20th day of August, 2026.
